That's it - most probably it works if you try the same with newer
FreeBSD 13-CURRENT. At least for me overlays did not work with usual
FreeBSD 12-STABLE, after switching to FreeBSD 13-CURRENT it's OK. Try
to create secondary SD card with FreeBSD 13-CURRENT. I do not know the
details why. Somebody(tm) with working knowledge of overlay's internals
need to look it up.
